<u>Answer</u>:
The people of Florence decide to end Cosimo's exile and invite him back C: to stop the financial suffering that occurred once the Medici withdrew their money from the city
.
<u>Explanation</u>:
“The Medici” was the first dynasty which had won their status not by fighting a war or inheritance, but they succeeded in commerce. The Medici family is also referred as the 'House of Medici'. In the 13th century, both in trade and finance, they gained money and political influence in Florence.
Cosimo de' Medici was the first ruler of Florence from Medici family. In 1433, he was arrested by a rival group. But he was saved from death punishment by his family and friends. But, he was exiled for ten years. He went to Venice and controlled a political party of France as he wanted to work for his return. Within a year, Florence people invited him back. Because he had bought the favour of 'Bernardo Guadagni', for about $25,000.
Before embarking on the series of court cases that argued for his freedom, Scott’s life was the rootless existence typical of many slaves. Born around 1799 in Virginia, he moved with his owner Peter Blow to Alabama and eventually to St. Louis, where he was sold to U.S. Army Dr. John Emerson in the early 1830s.
Like many antebellum officers, Emerson was transferred from post to post through Western states and territories. During those journeys, Scott married a slave woman named Harriet Robinson in 1836. When Emerson died in 1843, Scott, by then the father of two children, likely hoped the doctor’s will would manumit him—and his family—but it did not. Scott then offered Emerson’s brother-in-law and executor, J.A. Sanford, $300 hoping to buy his own freedom. But the offer was turned down. Scott decided to take the matter to the courts.
By 1846, Scott was living in St. Louis in service to Emerson’s widow. He filed suit with the state of Missouri, claiming that since he had lived with Emerson in Illinois—where slavery was outlawed by the 1787 Northwest Ordinance—and Fort Snelling in Minnesota—where the Missouri Compromise outlawed slavery in 1820—he was entitled to his freedom. In an interesting twist, the children of Peter Blow, Scott’s first owner, provided the slave family financial assistance.
I'm not sure but I'd say because of Japan, Japan more or less did not get involved in many wars as far as I know. I know that Japan had no reason to go against Korea but still did and sided with China/North Korea. Because of that a lot of hate came from that and since then even sometimes now South Koreans are not very fond of Japanese.
Also I hope no one takes offense that's what I know I'm not saying all Koreans hate Japanese just some...
Hope this helps
